A Reflection of You

A Reflection of You

When someone in your life is getting on your nerves or causing you misery, he or she is there for a reason. One of the hardest lessons I’ve had to learn is that the people in my life are reflection of me.

The next time someone rubs you the wrong way, ask yourself why. Does this person remind you of how you used to be? Can you remember a time in your life when you behaved like them?

Often, when we grow and change, we want to discard our old parts and forget they existed. When we remember that we once acted like that annoying person, we can be more tolerant.

This does not mean we have to keep them in our lives, but we can be more forgiving by remembering we were once like them. After all, if we can change, so can they.
